Cowboy4L Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 Seems to be a lot of late movement this year in the head coaching world. Lubbock Roosevelt opened today. They were just in the semifinals in 2021. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBuddyGarrity Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 I wonder with such a late move do they already have their guy on staff...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just being in the district with Brock takes you out of contention for the district title most years. Also, I am curious on how many of their basketball players play football. I would guess 0 or almost 0. You can't win that district in basketball, and not have athletes to compete well in football. I actually interviewed at Peaster a few years ago and I will say that the AD there was a piece of work. I am shocked that he lasted as long as he did.

nationalpastime Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 I've noticed a trend recently where coaches are retiring later to help one of their guys get the job. Not sure if that's the case here or not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need an AD/HFC that understands that basketball is the priority in Peaster, but they also want them to compete in football. The new AD/HFC also can't be a complete ####### to everyone in the town and school and expect to keep their job. I wish I was just reflecting the views of one parent, but this or something similar to it has come from every single person I know in Peaster. Not to mention that I interviewed with the guy... When I turned down the job offer he said "Why? Do you think you can find a better job?" My answer was "I already have a better job, and you definitely just confirmed that."

The arrogance level of some head football coaches is so overwhelmingly insane it is almost impossible to imagine. The longer I stay in the business the more I just laugh at most of these dudes. They think they know everything and are the first ones to run from work. These do as I say not as I do "leaders" are a complete joke. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcretired Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 Was this job ever posted outside the school website? They could be competitive with the right leadership. Will they beat Brock? No, but they could go a couple of rounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know either one...or the guy that WAS there either but I do know that things can go sideways pretty quickly in smaller districts. Best of luck to the new guys.

Doomer Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 Alot of late movement is used to get matchups into your team's favor. For instance a reciever may go into motion to avoid a double-team situation. A fullback may move up to flanker position to more easily make an important block on a devastating pass rusher. A tailback can go in motion for a quick swing pass in order to have a chance a out-racing a defender to the corner of the endzone in a short yardage situation. Movement matters!
